Default Indian Scrim

Hi

Here is an indian I just finished.I've scrimmed this indian before
on buffalo horn but I feel in this piece the cracks on the ivory adds
character to the indian's face.

Knife Regards
Yvonne

Well done Yvonne,
The hairline cracks in the Ivory do give character to the work. Can You post a picture of the complete knife?

Cheers

"VAN"
